   I am the author of Harmonious Environment.

   Hah! Someone warned me about using the name Lingham for my publishing company, explaining it is the Sanskrit word for penis. However, there is also another meaning: Shiva Lingham stones are used in Feng Shui and for metaphysical healings. They are found in the sacred Narmada River in Onkar Mandhata, one of India’s seven holy sites.

   The stones are very beautiful and I collect rocks…hence, Lingham press.

   But you never know…my next book could be sex-related.

   Thanks for the post and the laugh!

   Norma,

   I double-checked on Google before I made this post because I thought I might be mistaken, but the first entry was not describing stones!

   Just be aware that those who aren’t familiar with the word will Google it and get a surprise.

   And again, you published a lovely book. It certainly appears worthy of the top prize.

   Amelia,

   Something of a way of earning money. Though how does one know one has a bestseller until it’s being sold?
